I It was said by some who pretended to know that Count von Uroltstolh bad had a Jesuit for a tutor; but, lie this as it might, it was certain that when he had a goal to reach he did not pick his footsteps by the way. A (lower hero or there was apt to bo trodden down, a small life broken, a reputa tion stained, bill what of (hat when Ithaetla's standard was to lie planted upon the mountain top? Supposing li." had said to the em peror after bis promise of plain speak ing: "Your majesty's Journey today Is a wild goose chase. I happen to know that those you seek are still III their hotel In Kronhurg. When 1 heard from my brother Hgon that they wore leav ing Sehloss Lyiulnlbctg suddenly and secretly I wont Immediately h> Krou burg and called upon (he ladies. My Intention was to frighten them away by telling them thai the fraud was found out and they had heller dlsnp-I pear decently of their own accord un less they wished to bo assisted over tho frontier. They actually dared refuse to see me. alleging as an CXCli: o the sudden Illness of I heir companion, which had prevented their having Kronburg,ns they Intended. While I was awaiting this answer 1 learned that some person was telegraphing from tho railway station to tho hotel man ager Inquiring if tho Mowbrnys had gone. I guessed this person to be your majesty and venture I to use my in fluence strongly with the manager, so successfully that l was permitted to dictate tho reply ami obtain his prom ise that tin; mailer should he strictly confidential. 1 Judged that your maj esty had meant h> take (he Orient ox press, hut had missed It, and. as you telephoned from tho station, l had no doubt that you Intended to follow either by the next (rain > r hy a special, Noon I learned that no special had been ordered by any one. I ascertained the time of the next (rain and sought your majesty In it. Had my eloquence then prevailed With you I should have urged your return will? nie, and thus you would have been spared the useless journey to Felgnrdo. As you remained obstinately faithful, however, i con sidered myself fortunate to have you out of tho way, so that I could hurry back, and, unhampered by your sus picions, set about learning si ill moro foots to Miss Mowbrny'S discredit or Inventing a fOW if those which un doubtedly existed could not bo unearth ed in time." Supposing that fount von I'.reit steln's boasted frankness had led hhn to make these statements, it i i proba bio that Rhnctla would not long have rejoiced in a chancellor so wlso and so self sacrificing. It was well enough for I ho old man to declare bis willingness to retire if bis master desired It, but he had conn! Od, as people who risk all for gnat ends do count, <>n not being taken at his word. Ho loved power because ho hod always had II, and without power life would not he worth the living, but It was honestly for the country's sako and for Leopold's sal e rather than his own that he desired to hold und keep his high position. W ithout his strong hand to seize the helm should Leopold's fail for some careless Instant be conscientiously bollovod that tho ship of slate would he lost. He had done his best to disillusion a young man tricked into love for an adventuress. Now neither as chancel lor nor friend could he make further open protest unless favored by fate with some striking new development. 1'hero were nevertheless other ways of working, and lio had but taken tho first step toward Interference. He meant, slneo worse ha.1 come lo worst, to go on rolOfltlessly, and he would hardly have considered It criminal to destroy n woman of the type to which he assigned Helen Mowbray, provided no means less stringent suflleed to snatch her from the throne of Rhoetla. Thero wore many plans seething In tho chancellor's hond, and FJgon's help might be necessary, lie might even have to go so far as to bribe Kgon to kidnap the girl and saerilleo himself by marrying her out of bond before she had a Chance to learn that tho emperor was ready to meet her de mands. Kgon had boon attentive to Miss Mowbray. It might well bo be lieved oven by the omperor that tho young rnnn had beon madly enough In lovo to net upon his own Initiative, un influenced by his brother. Tho ehniieellor's first act on purling With I*eor>old was to telegraph OapUtin j I von liroltstoln to meet the train by ; which he would return to Kronburg. i Therefore on arriving nt the station bo ! was not surprised to sec Egon's hand [ some face prominent among otbers less nttmctlvo on the crowded plutform. "U'ellV questioned tho young man as the old man descended. "I'm sorry to say It Is very far from well. Hut between us we shall, I hope, Improve matters. You have kept your self nil eonrnnt with everything that hns happened In the camp of the en oniy':" "Yes." "Is nuythlng sltrrlng?" "Say 'any one,' and I can answer you more easily. Who do you think has ur rlved at the hotel?" "Tho devil, probably, to complicate matters." "I've heard him called bo, but a good looking devil and devilishly pleasant. I met him In his motor, In which iio'd driven Into town from his new toy, tho hunting lodge In"? "What! You mean tho Prince"? "Of Darkness, you'vo Just named ldm." Egon gavo a laugh nt his own repartee, hut tho chancellor heard nei ther. Ills hard face brightened. "Thafs j well," said he grimly. "Here we have lust the, young man to see Dfl through this bad pass If he's as good looking OS ever and In his usual mood for iuta ?:hlof. If we can interest him lu this affair, ho may save mo a great deal of trouble and you n mlsolllance." "Hut your wedding presoqt to mo"? began Egon blankly. "Don't distress yourself. Do what you can to assist me, and, whatever the end, you shall be my heir, I prom ise you. Is tho prlnco at the hotel ! now'.'" "Yes. lie had been to call on you at your town house, he stopped his auto mobile to tell me, and, hearing from me (hat you would be back this even ing, he doclded to stay all night at Hie hotel, so that tie could have a chat with you after your return, no mutter at what hour It might be. I. believe he has left a note at your house." "I will go to him, ami we eon then discuss Its contents together," said Count von Ilroltstelu, and the chauf feur who drove tils electric carriage was told to go to the Hohonlangenwnld hotel. 'I he prince, who would, the chancel lor hoped, become the dens ex mnchlna, w as engaged in selecting the wines for his dinner w hen Count von Mreltstetn's . Mid was sent In. He was pleased to say that he would receive his visitor, and, Kgon having been seat about his business, the chancellor was shown into the purplo drawlug room of the l suit reserved for royalty. As he entered a young man jumped up from uu easy chulr, scattering sheaves of Illustrated papers, and held out both his hands, with a "Welcome, my dear old friend!" II would have been vain to scour the I world In quest of a handsomer young man than this one. Even Egon von Hrellsteln would have seemed u mere u.1 looking puppet beside him, and the chancellor rejoiced In the physical perfection of a prince who might provo a dangerous rival for an absent em peror. "This Is the best of good fortune 1" exclaimed Count von Breitstein. "Egon told me you were here, and without waiiing to get the note he said you h id left for me I came to you straight from the railway station." "Splendid! And now you must dine with mi'. It was that I asked of you In my note. 1 ?Inner eurly, a serious talk and an antidote for solemnity In a visit to the I.eopoldhalle to see Mile. Fol Ice from tho Folies Hergere do her famous tire and fountain dance. A box, curtains half drawn, no one need know that the chancellor helps his young friend amuse himself." "1 thank your royal highness for the j honor you suggest, and nothing could give me greater pleasure if I had not u suggestion to venture, in place of yours, which I believe may suit you better. I think I know of what yort Wish t<? talk with me, and I desire the snmo, while the business I havo most at heart"? "Ah, your Imsinees is my business, then'/" "I hope you may so consider It. In any ease It Is business which must be carried through now or never and is of life and death Importance to those whom it concerns. How it's to be done or whether dono at all may de pend on you, if you consent to interest yourself, ond It could not he In more competent hands. If I'd l>een given my choice of an assistant out of the whole world I should have chosen your royal highness." "This sounds llko on adventure." "It may be an adventure and nt the same lime an act of Justice." "flood. Although It was not in search of an adventure that I came to you, any more than it was the hope of game Which brought me on n sudden impulse to my little hunting lodge, still I trust i I have always (ho Instinct of a sports i man." "I am sure of that, and I hove the , less hesitation In enlisting your good ' will because it happens that your bird i and mine eon be killed with one shot." I "Chancellor, you excite my curios ity." I 'i he old man smiled genially, but UQ< der tho brtstlhigTjr?wlPglowocl n ?amo iib of tho hi?t embers In n dying Urs. "Upstairs," said he, "is a pretty worn an, a bcnuty. She claims the name of Helen Mowbray, though her right to it Is more than disputable. Her love af fairs threaten a public Bcaudal." "Ah, you are not tho Ursl one who hns spoken of this pretty lady sinco 1 crossed the frontier this morning," ex-1 claimed the young man, Hushing, lie paused and bit his Hp before going on. ns If he wished to think or regain Bell control, but at last he laughed not al together lightly. "So tho lady most talked about for the moment In all Ithactla Is under Ihe same roof with me." "Fortunately she is closo at hand." said tho chancellor. "To you more than to any other I can open my heart lu speaking of our great peril. Thh girl has drawn llu; emperor Into a lit of moon madness. It is no more seil ous than that, and were she out of tho way he would wake as from a dream. Hut this Is the moment of the crisis, lie must be saved now or he Is lest forever and all our hopes with him. Blessed would bo tho man who brought my poor master to bis senses. I have tried and failed. Hut you could do it." "IV" "The sword of Justice is ready for your hand." "That sentence has a solemn ring. I don't see what you want me to do. But what sort of woman is this who lias bewitched your grave Leopold?" "Beautiful and clever as women are clever, but not clever enough to light her buttle out against you and me." The prince laughed again. "It Isn't my metier to light with women. I pre fer to make love to them." "Ah, you have said It! That is what I beg your royal highness to do." "How am i to get at her when Leo pold stands guard?" "He will not he on guard for some hours." "Ha, ho! You mean me lo under stand that there's uo llmo to waste." "Not a moment." "What Is the. girl like?" "Tall and slender, pink and white as a (lower, dark lashed and yellow hair ed, like an Austrian beauty; eyes gray or violet, It would bo beard to say which for a man of my years, hut even I can assure you that when the lady looks down, then suddenly up again under those dark lashes, it's Something lo quicken Ihe pulse of any man under sixty." "It would quicken mine only to hear your description if you hadn't just put a maggot In my head that tickles me to laughter Instead of raptures," said the prince. "Tell me (his?tee this girl a tiny black mole Just over the left eye brow, very fetching, and when she smiles does her mouth point upward a bit ou the light Side, like a fairy sign post showing the way to a small round scar almost as good as a dimple?" The chancellor reflected for a few seconds and then replied that unless tils eyesight and his memory had de ceived him both these marks were to be met w ith on Miss Mow bray's face. He did not add that bo bad scon her but once and at the time had not taken interest enough lo note details, for il was plain that (he prince had a theory as to the lady's real identity and to es tablish it as a fact might be valuable. "is it possible (hat you've already met this dangerous young person'.-" he asked eagerly. "Well. I begin lo believe i( may be so. I'll explain why later. Thereby hangs a confession. At all events, a certain lady exactly answering tho de scription you've given Is very likely in this neighborhood. I've heard that she was shortly due In Kronburg and It was lu my mind wbon deciding sud denly to spend a few days In the woods for the sake of seeing you that I might see her also before I went home again. As a mailer of fact, the lady and I have had a misunderstanding nt a rattier unfortunate moment, as I'd just Imprudently taken her into my coufldenco concerning -er some family affairs, if it is she who is masquerad ing lu Hhnetln as Miss Mowbray and turning your emperor's head, it may ho that she's trying to revenge herself on me. She's pretty enough to begullo St. Anthony, let alone a St. Leopold, and she's clever enough to have thought out such a scheme. Our small quarrel happened about four weeks ago, and I've lost sight of the lady since. She disappeared, expecting probably to he followed, but she wasn't. Tin; only question Is, If she's playing Miss Mow bray, where did she get the mother? I've heard there Is a Mowbray mother." "There's a faded Dresden china shep hordCSS (hat answers to the unmo," said (he chancellor dryly. "Hut these mantelpiece ornaments are easily man ufacturcd." The prince was amused. "N<>; shO wouldn't stick at a mother if she wanted one," he chuckled. "And, w hile she was about il, she has apparently annexed a whole family tree. The, black mole and tin- scar dimple youT' sure of thorn, chnuccllor? Because, if you are" "Oh, I am practically certain!" "Then Ihe more pieces in Ihe puzzle which 1 111 together Ihe more li; ell does It Koem that your Leopold's Miss Helen Mowbray and my Miss Jenny Brett are one and (he same." "Miss Jenny Brett?" "Did you never hear (he name'/" "If I have I've forgotten it." "Chancellor, you wouldn't forget if. yoil were a few years younger. Jenny Hielt Is Ihe prettiest If not Ihe most talented singer ever sent out from Australia, (he fashionable home of singers. She Is billed to sing at the Court theater of Kronburg lu a fort night, her first engagement in Khae tla." "You are rigid, it may well be Hint she's been having a game with us a game that we can prevent now. thank heaven, from ending in earnest." "Oh, yos; we can prevent that." "Jour royal highness met tho lady In your own country'/'' "N o. It was In Tails at first, hut I'm a fin kl I Induced lior to accept au engagement at home. We were great friends for awhile, and really she's a charming creature I can't blame my self. Who would have guessed that she'd turn out so ambitious? By Jove, I can sympathize wttli Leopold. The girl tried to twist me round her linger and, I verily believe, fancied at one time that I would offer her marriage." "It must lie (he same girl. And the emperor has offered her marriage." "WhatV Impossible! But? with the left hand, of course, though even that would be unheard of for a man In his" - "I swear to your royal highness that if he isn't stopped ho w ill force her on the Rhactlnii people as empress." "Cad little Jenny Brett! I didn't half appreciate her brilliant qualities." "Yet 1 would wager that she appre ciated yours," The prlnco shrugged his shoulders. "I he''eve she really cared something for me- a month ago." "Then she slill eares. Von are not a man w hom a woman can forged, though pique, or ambition may lead her to try. 1 loll you frankly I believe that I'rov ideneo sent your royal highness here al this moment, ami my best hopes are now pinned on you.** You?and no one as well as you?can save tho em peror for a nobler fate. Kven when I supposed you a stranger to this lady who calls herself Helen Mowbray I thought that if you would consent to meet her and exercise your fascina tions there might be hope of averting the danger from my master. Now 1 hope everything. 1 lieg, I entreat, that your royal highness w III send up your name and ask the lady to see you with out delay. She will certainly recelvo you, and when the emperor learns that she has done so it may go far to disil lusion him, for, pardon me, your royal highness has a great reputation as a lady killer. Still more valuable would he, however?indeed, lie would he cured of his infatuation forever?If?If"? "If what?" Inquired tho young man, tired of the chancellor's long winded UCS8 and healing about the bush. "If you could persuade her to go out to your hunting lodge. Then Leopold and Rhnctia would lie saved by you. What could be better? What could be more suitable?" "What, indeed," echoed the priuce, "for every one concerned except for Jenny Brott?" "Considering the havoc she has work ed among us all, need sho bo consid ered before the Interests of a great country and, perhaps I mny hint, on Innocent and lovely royal lady whom this girl is doing her liest to humili ate?" "I'm hanged if she need be so con sidered! Anyhow I'll do w hat you ask. I'll sei d up my card, and then we'll see what happens." The prince took from his pocket a small gold case sparkling with jewels, a triile which advertised itself as the gift of a woman. Out of lids came a card, with a crown over the name In I he fashion of bis country and some others. An equerry wailing in an ad joining room was summoned, the card given lo him, passed on to n hold serv ant, and then for live minutes, ten min utes, (he (dd man and the young one waited, talking of a .subject very near to I loth their hearts. At last, when they had no moro to say. word came that Lady Mowbray and .Miss Mow bray would see his royal highness. "The value of a well regulated moth er!'' laughed the young man, who had nol troubled to inquire for Lady Mow bray. "Well, whatever comes of this Interview, chancellor, I shall presently have something to tell you." ' The suspense w ill be hard to hear," said Count von Brcllstoin, "hut I have perfect fnllh in you. Wo understand each other completely now, but I'm growing old, and (he past few days have tired me sorely. Itcmoinhor, I pray you, all that's at stake and do nol hesitate for an Instant. Have no false scruple with such a person as this. Tin; emperor will soon arrive In Kronburg. IIo'll lose no time In trying to lind the girl, and once they've had "I'll st;n<l up my card." finothor meeting all our plans, all our precautions, may be in vain. Ho searches for her to offer his crown." Tho prince listened and dhl not smile as he went out. lie had hidden tho chancellor await Ids return In tho Salon of tho royal suit, Which was always kept at his disposal when he appeared In tho neighborhood, ns ho often did since purchasing tho hunting lodge a few miles out of Kronburg in the forest. Oilier foreign royalties or lesser princes from the provinces occasional ly occupied tho apartments also, and this handsome royal hlghneso of today was not the only one whom the chan cellor of llhnetla had visited there. He knew by heart the rich purple hang ings In the salon, with the double wolf head of llhaotla stamped In gold at regular Intervale on tho velvet, and he sickened of their splendor now as the moments dragged and he remained alone. When half an hour had passed he could no longer Bit still on the purple velvet sofa, but began walking up and down, his hands behind Mm, scowling at tho full length oil palntod portraits of Khaetla's dead rulers, glaring a question Into his own eyes la the long, gold framed mirrors?a question he would have given his life to heor an swered hi tho way he wished. Three-quarters of an hour had gone at last, and still the chancellor paced the purple drawing room, and still the prince did not come back to tell the news. Had the young man failed? Had that si.-n upstaln beguiled blni, as ahe had beguiled ouo stronger and greater than he? Was It possible that she had lured the whole secret of their scheme from the prince aud then Induced htm to leave the hotel while her arch ene my fumed In the salon, awaiting his return? But, no; thero were quick footstepB : outside the door. The handle was ! turned. At least his royal highness was not a traitor. As the chancellor had confessed, bo was growing okl. lie felt suddenly very weak. His lips fell apart, trem bling, yet he would not utter the words that hung upon them. Fortunately the prince read the ap peal lu the glittering eyes and did not wait to he questioned. "Well, I've seen tho lady and had a talk with her," he said la a voice which wus, tho old man felt, somehow different In tone from what It had been an hour ago. "Aud Is she tho person you have known?" "Yes, she's a person I have known. It's?It's all right atwut that plan of yours, chancellor. She's going with me to the lodge." "Heaven be praised! It seems ol most too good to be true. When does she go?" "At once -that Is, as soon as she can get ready. She will dine with me, and my equerry will stop behind and eat the dinner I had ordered here." "Magnificent! Then she will go with you alone? Nothing could be t>etter. The presence of the alleged mother an chaperon would l>e a drawback." "Oh, no chaperon la needed for us two. The - er?mother remains at the hotel with n la?a companion fhoy have, who Is ill. It wrb?er?somewhat difficult to arrange this matter, but I don't th'nk tho plot I have in mind now will fall, provided you carry through your part as smortly as I have carried mine." "You may depend upon me. Your royal highness Is marvelous. Am I to understand that the lad.* goes with you quite of her own free will?" "Quite. 1 flatter myself that she's rather pleased with the Invitation. In a few minutes I and the fair damsel Will be spinning away for a drive in my red motor ? you know, the one which I always leave at the lodge, to be ready for use whenever I choose to pay a Hying visit. I shall keep her out until It's dark to give you plenty of time, but before starting I'll telephone to my chef that, after nil, I shan't b? away and ho must prepare dinner for two." "I also will send a telephone mes sage," said the chancellor. "To Leopold?" "Yes. your royal highness. This time there will be no uneertolu<ty in my words to him. They will strike home, and even If ho should not bo intend ing to come to Kronburg tonight they will bring him." "You are sure you know where to catch the emperor?" "He'll telephone mo from Felgarde when he has found those he sought are not there, as ho will, and I must be at my house to receive and answer his message. It will soon lie time now." "Very well; all that seems to arrange Itself satisfactorily," sold the prince. "Our motor drive can be stretched out for an hour and a half. The lady will (hen need to dress. Dinner can be kept bock till half past 8, if It would suit your book to hroak in upon us at Ihe table. My dining room isn't very grand, but **? ' as plenty A light ond color one wouldn't make a bad back ground for the last act of this little drama. What do you say, chancellor? I've always thought that your success os a stogo manager of the theater of nations wos pari tally duo lo your eye for dramatic effects." "Such effects ore not to be despised, considering the nudienco wo cuter for in (hot theater." "Well, I promise you that for our little amateur play tonight In my pri vate theater the footlights shall 1k> lit, the stogo set ond two of the principal puppets dressed and painted for tho show before 0. I suppose you can in troduce the leading man by that ttmo or a little lotor?" The bristling brows drew together Involuntarily. Count von Drelstotn was working without scruple against tho emperor for the emperor's good, vet he winced nt his nccompllco's light Jest, ond It was by an effort that ho kept ft note of disapproval out of his voice. "Unless I much mistake, his majesty will order a special train as soon as he has hod my message," said he. "That and everything else falling as I con fidently expoct, I shall be able to bring him out to your royal highness' hunt ing lodgo a little after 0." "You'll And us at tho third course," prophesied the prince. "Naturally the emperor's appearance w ill startle your visitor," went on the chancellor, keenly watching tho young man's extraordinarily handaome face. "She would not dare tnko tho risk and drive out with you, great as the temp tation would no doubt be, did sho dream thnt ho would learn of tho es capade and follow. Indeed, your roy al highness must have found subtle weapons ready to your baud that you so soon broke through tho armor of her prudence. I expected much from your magnetism and resourceful wit, yet I hardly dared hope for such speedy, such unqualified success ns this which now seems assureuVto us." "My weapons were sharpened on my past acquaintance with the pretty lady," explained tho prince; "otherwise the result might have been postponed for as many days as I have delayed moments, though at last the end might have been tho same." "Not for Rhnctla Bvory instant counts. Thanks to you, wo shall win, for, actress as this girl Is, she'll Qnd It a task beyond her powers to justify to a Jealous muu this evening's tete-a tete with, you." "If she tests those powers in our presence, we con be audience and ad mire her histrionic talents," said tho prince pleasantly, (hough with sotno faint, growing sign of constraint or perhaps Impatience. - There's no doubt In my mind, whatever may be tho lady's conception of her part, about tho final tableau. And, after all, It's with that alone you concern yourself, eh, chancellor?" "It's that alone," echoed the old man. ?IThen you would like to go and await the message. There's nothing moro for us to arrange. An revoir, chancellor, till 0." "Tin 0." "When the curtain for the last act will ring up." The prince held out his hand. Count von rtreitsteln grasped it and then hur ried to his electric carriage, which had been waiting outside the hotel. A few minutes later he was talking over tho wire to the emperor In the railway sta tion at Fclgardc. (Continued. 1 A TravcliiiR Man's Experience. "I must tell you my experience on an East bound ?.
